Had a very enjoyable dive yesterday (9 Jan 2004) on the Yellow Submarine Reef. We saw two sea horses, a very friendly turtle, a placid porcupine fish, a hunting octopus, and then this:

Hmmm, the question is what were you eating that may have appealed to the fish?? Last time I had a fish nibble (okay bite!) at my hand it was a chub who wanted what was left in a fish bait bag that I was removing after someone left it behind on the reef...

Fascinating, Roger! Thanks for posting the pics. I used to have some white fish in Aruba always nibble on my painted fingernails when I would stand or float in the water. I don't know if it was the color of the nailpolish or the polish, itself that attracted them... It was a bit shiny/irridescent which might have been the attraction.
